at home and at work I have the same problem with octave under

both cases I octave just quits without giving any output, no prompt, no

You might try starting octave using "octave -V" or "octave -x" (or
both) to
determine if it is getting hung in one of the startup scripts.
Otherwise follow the problem reporting guidelines ...

Also try "cygcheck -c octave", which verifies the package is intact. If
that doesn't show anything, try "cygcheck /bin/octave.exe" which shows
all the
DLLs that octave depends on, and make sure they're all installed: maybe
there's a missed dependency in the setup.ini lines.
octave -V, octave -x, octave -V -x all output nothing
cygcheck -c octave
Cygwin Package Information
Package Version Status
octave 2.1.73-1 OK
cygcheck /bin/octave.exe
M:/cygwin/bin/octave.exe
I attached the cygcheck.out file, as requested. It was made on the
win2000 computer with rxvt as terminal, but I have the same problem with
cmd as terminal.
You mean 'cmd.exe' or 'bash' in 'cmd.exe'? If the latter, remove 'tty'
from your CYGWIN environment variable and try again. See:
